Titanium PO…

Is the titanium more or less desirable then SS on a PO? I’m considering titanium and was curious to what others have to say.

Before owning a titanium diver's watch (I have a Seiko "Shogun") I would not have had a preference for a titanium anything, but I love the look and feel of the Seiko that I own. I'm surprised to find myself enjoying it as much as I do.

I picked up the titanium PO on the rubber back in April. It's light and with a lug to lug of 49mm it fits great, I absolutely love it.

The weight of the stainless PO 43.5mm on my wrist gives me great comfort. Kinda like a weighted blanket. The titanium watch (IWC) in rotation mostly justr sits in my watch box. Lighter weight doesnt do it for me.

It’s more comfortable on the rubber strap and the titanium bracelet than the stainless steel version.

I’ve had a blue titanium for 6 years and I have no complaints. Ti holds up very well to scratches and still looks new. The lighter weight is super comfortable on the wrist. Lose the he valve and shave a few mm of thickness off and it would be a tough one to beat. To me it’s a great value for the $ if you can grab one at a good price.

I’ve owned mine for many years now and can’t say enough about the titanium version. It’s incredibly light which makes wearing it all day a breeze.
